Why is Firefox support ending for Windows XP and Vista users?

Firefox is one of the only browsers to offer any support for Windows XP and Vista. Microsoft itself ended support for Windows XP in 2014 and will end support for Windows Vista in 2017. Unsupported operating systems receive no security updates, have known exploits, and can be dangerous to use, which makes it difficult to maintain Firefox on those versions.Firefox security updates for XP and Vista users will continue until September 2017, although new features will not be offered. In mid-2017, a final support end date will be announced based on the number of users still on Windows XP and Vista.

Will switching to a different browser keep me protected?

Unfortunately not. Most browsers (such as Google Chrome and Microsoft Internet Explorer) have already ended support for Windows XP and Windows Vista.

If upgrading your operating system is not an option, you can still expect continued Firefox security updates until September 2017.

Can I still browse safely with Firefox?

In March 2017, if you are using Firefox with Windows XP or Windows Vista, you will automatically be updated to the Extended Support Release version of Firefox. You will continue to receive important Firefox security updates but no other features or updates. You do not need to do anything else.

How can I get the newest features of Firefox?

If you want to keep your Firefox up to date, with all the latest features and updates, you’ll need to upgrade your computer’s operating system.

Upgrade to a Windows version that Microsoft still supports, such as Windows 7, 8 or 10. Learn how here. Windows versions that are not supported by Microsoft are unreliable and unsafe to use, which also makes it difficult to maintain Firefox on those versions.
(Advanced): Switch to a Linux-based operating system. Please see the support websites for the version of Linux that you’re interested in.

Now a days taking pictures and uploading them on networking sites..like facebook, Instagram has become a new trend. Most of us use Instagram along with its filters to make our uploading pictures more attractive and align.

Like Facebook, after registering to use the site, users were able to create a personal profile, add other users as friends, exchange messages, post status updates and photos, and receive notifications when others updated their profiles.sharewinit differentiated itself from competitors by allowing its users to maintain ownership of the content they post.

sharewinit has been compared extensively to , a contemporary social network that rejects selling advertisements at all; sharewinit approach was to instead embrace the fact that social media content has value and, via a YouTube-like rev-share, distribute ad revenue through a tiered payment structure among users based upon their viewership. Members “earned” a few cents for certain activity. The tiered membership structure enabled members to build up pyramids of members beneath them from whom they received a small share of their commission. Thus early members, who were able to invite new members and build pyramids of users beneath them, were often used as examples of sharewinit success stories in the media. Payment to members was received once they had reached the earnings threshold equivalent of US$6 in their sharewinit accounts.
